Hello,
I had classical "SD card Unexpectedly Removed" problem. It was in the phone, and suddenly it reported it as removed. So i rebooted the phone, but it just wouldn't boot properly, displayed animation for a long time and then black screen, didn't react to power etc. So i started opening to remove the battery (and SD card) and all of a sudden it was booted, but still didn;t react to unlock, buttons, etc. I removed the SD card and it booted OK, took a long time to load widget ICONS, since I use icons from SD card (how could it load them at all if they're on SD card?, Cached?), and now it works OK without SD card.
Now, I put SD card in a PC and am backing it up right now to hard disk. The strangest thing is, that after booting w/o card, my phone switched to GERMAN!!! How to explain that??
Any ideas except backup/format card/restore?
To reply to my own question;
I booted without SD card, and then inserted SD card. And everything worked for a day. Then I noticed terrible drain, google services was on for several hours, so I rebooted. Phone AGAIN wouldn't boot with SD card. I booted without and isnerted SD card - everything seems OK.
Really strange. Any clues as to what might be happening?

Hi,
(running MCR3.1)
I installed a 16Gb card last night, and everything seemed ok until I got to work today and it appeard Apps to Sd wasn't working.
I used Rom manager to partition the SD card, but the phone will no longer boot with the SD card fitted.
When I remove the SD card the phone works fine.
Anyone got any suggestions, apart from wait till I get home and reformat the card on my PC.
edit....ok, fixed it. took ages, but now working.
for some reason yesterday my phone won't recognize the sd card. i know many people will as if i've reformatted the card. the answer is no. earlier in the day i was able to access the photos i had stored on the sd card and everything was fine. lastnight i was deleting some pictures on the internal memory and the folder that have my external memory pics had a "broken" image icon. i pulled the battery and sd, reinserted and none of the sd pics were available. i went into the menu and the phone says to mount sd/insert card (sd card is already inserted). i inserted the sd into an adapter and connected to my pc and the pc won't recognize the sd. i even inserted a different sd into my phone and the phone still didn't recognize. i haven't dropped my phone or exposed it to any moisture. the phone suddenly won't mount the card. i'm thinking the sd tray in the phone is glitched but it's so sudden considering i take really good care of the phone. the phone wasn't plugged in when this happened. any ideas on a resolution? thank you in advance.
Ok so when it's working,it's working ok. But i was just sleeping and i tried to unlock my phone: it did not work.
I took out the SD card and put it back and the phone started working.
What's up with this ? Is it the card or the phone? The card was working on other phone perfectly fine.
Soo..?
It's possible that the SD card has nothing to do with it, and it happened to start working again when you unplugged and replugged the SD card. Have you seen this happen multiple times?
Hi,
Since recently i have the strange thing with my G3. When i insert an external SD card the phone reconige it. When any app wants to read it or write to it the card gets unmounted and directly back mounted. This happens with any app i use. As long as my phone is in standby (screen off) the cards remains mounted at all time because ther is no app using the SD card. But once I use my phone for example taking a picture bamm the card gets unmounted.
I tried everything from reformatting it in my laptop to rename the card to replace the sd card. I even tried another card but nothing happens.
I put my phone back to factory defaults but that does also no help.
Hardware issue?
thx
Im facing the same problem with my g3
I flashed it with tot file as well as kdz
Went from tz crash to kernel crash
Flashed again
Got the sd card slot changed still facing the issue.
Please help!
I bought 32gb sandisk sd card yesterday. It was fine after first partition. But after a while i started to get "broken sd" kart error and the sd card wasn't even on the storage section. After couple of reboots i finally was able to make partition again but the same thing started to happen over and over again. Sometimes there isn't even an error sd card just disappears. And when sd card works properly phone slows down a bit. Like after pressin power button screen won't open for 2-3 secs. What may be the issue here?
Someone said make partition on pc but i lost my card reader. Is there any other way to fix this issue?
